This^^^ Conventional drives usually give some warning of impending failure. SSD's just quit.(my experience anyway). Most folks don't realize that SSDs degrade every time you use them. Each bit has a finite amount of read write cycles. Excellent articles on the internet explaining why.

Rotary vane will work too. https://www.compressorworld.com/rotary-vane-air-compressors/air/cfm:50-99-cfm

Yes. Since getting back into Flexi Pro I've been using it for most work. One job had 21 revisions.:confused: Sidebar: Just installed Affinity Designer yesterday and have been playing around with it. For a lot of the basic stuff I do it should be fine for 35 bucks I took a shot. Time will tell.

I will be the lone voice of dissent. For basic everyday jobs Flexi. Fast and simple. I'm not a fan of Onyx for multiple reasons. I have experience with both.

Are you designing in Illustrator? My experience is usually anything beyond a quarter point stroke cut line would trigger a double cut. Not all the time, but enough that it makes me double check.

Thanks Gino! All the best to you and yours.

In our neck of the woods wind shear would be 960 pounds. Call it an even thousand. Only way I'd do that is with a full perimeter frame bonded to the panel and lots of TapCons. Belt and suspenders strategy. Last thing you want is to "air freight" that off the side of the building.

Wanted to buy a bunch of ACM and have it shipped to my home. Usual supplier would deliver to me twice a week said we no longer do that. Guess what? I no longer order from you. Grimco doesn't care where you're located. They back the truck up to the door and unload for me. Been ordering from...

Mother-in-law has the cooking handled. Turkey, tenderloin tips with mushrooms, honey ham, biscuits, pies, tortes, salads etc...

They all smell. Some more than others.

Nah. Common sense rules the day. We kept the heater 8 feet or so away from the glass. This gave a good spread across the surface then we waited. Heat hitting the glass was about what you get out of a furnace vent in your home. Heater was ingesting sub-zero air for combustion taming the...

100,000 btu torpedo heater. Kero or propane doesn't matter. We did a glass etch job in January, during a snowstorm with one. Put it in the back of the shop vehicle and pointed it at the pane of glass. Kept us warm and made the vinyl adhere. It was a while ago, but I thing we did 6 separate...

The one in the lab doesn't shut off either. Annoying to have media flapping around when you're trying to print a small job. TUR on my Mutoh needs two things to function. It has to be turned on and the dancer bar has to "see" enough slack to activate.

Locks are just for honest people.;)

Not a fan of Rasterlink either.

We've printed on translucent poly for backlit work. Looks incredible. Canvas works well. Photo paper too. HTM for t-shirts was good as well. Clients were always happy with the quality. You will never be able to print on coro or anything thicker than about 1.2mm or so. Can't remember right now.

Wow. I feel fortunate that our town tells us wind load is 30lbs per square foot and to supply anchor data.

Some time ago I wrote a lengthy post regarding this. Biggest thing to ensure straight tracking is to physically verify your lead edge is PERFECTLY perpendicular to the edge of material. If you have to trim to get it square trim it. Without verifying that seemingly insignificant thing you'll...

Did a 4x8 panel for a local village and used brushed stainless DiBond. Out in the weather 24/7 and potentially getting sprayed by salty slush from cars and plows. Figured the extra cost was worth it.

Years ago you could buy oxy/acetylene cutting tables would follow a chalk line. You had to put it over the line to start. It would also follow flies and insects that landed within reading distance.
